Rufus 4.9.2256 freeware
The tool is wrapped in a user-friendly interface that resembles the Format panel found in Windows built-in features. You can select a device, partition scheme and target system type, file system type (FAT32, NTFS, UDF, exFAT), cluster size, and new volume label.

Improve reporting of UEFI bootloaders in the log, with info on the Secure Boot status Fix an issue with size limitations when writing an uncompressed VHD back to the same drive Fix a crash when opening the log with the 32-bit MinGW compiled version Fix commandline parameters not being forwarded to original Windows setup.exe |
